Can't go somewhere right after work, even if it's inconvenient to go home first. You always have to go home first to feed and water the dog.

Yeah, I get up early every day now including weekends. I have the option of making my schedule whenever I want but choose to work starting early in the day since my dog gets up early. I also limit my amount of alcoholic beverage intake because who wants to walk a dog if you are feeling your drinks? Add who wants to wake to a barking dog hung over?!
The second thing happened to me yesterday. I knew I had to take a client of mine somewhere at 3:45 and I would be there at least until 7PM. I had left my house around 8:30 that morning so had to drive all the way home out of my way around lunch time to walk the dog, then back to where I was to pick up the client cuz I knew I couldn't leave the dog home alone that long.
I know there is going to come a time given the nature of my field that I am involved in a crisis situation and won't be able to leave to go home to walk the dog. I don't really have anyone dependable to rely on for this, my boyfriend could do it, but it takes him over an hour to get to my house (or more if there's traffic) and I really don't want to hire a dog walker cuz I do this myself for the most part. Plus it is difficult to find trusting people........
